[asterisk-dev] Asterisk Test Suite: Proposed Logging Change

[Matthew Jordan]

Back when we first added python logging to the Asterisk Test Suite, there
were considerably fewer tests and the log files - while large - were
slightly more manageable. Today, it feels like things have gotten a bit
more cumbersome.

On a recent run of the full Asterisk Test Suite, the full DEBUG output can
top out at over 11MB. While not so huge that it is impossible to deal with,
that's still quite large.

How would everyone who uses the Test Suite feel if each test created its
own DEBUG Python logs and stored them in the same location as the test's
Asterisk log files? From the perspective of someone trying to figure out
why a test failed, it would be a bit easier to look in those locations (as
you usually have to anyway to look at the Asterisk logs), and it doesn't
preclude using the logger.conf for the Python logger to create a central
location for log files.
